Sanford Bumps Iran's Ongoing Crisis Off The 24/7

Thanks Mark Sanford, Republican Governor of South Carolina and I say that sarcastically. The situation in Iran is way more important than more Republican infidelities and hypocrisy.

How is John McCain's Affair Different than John Edwards?

We have this weird notion in America now that if a politician is caught in an affair that his career is done. We seem to be saying that what he did in his private life effects his policies or how he governs. But we all know that isn't true. We know that because almost all of our great presidents, and great leaders throughout history, have had numerous affairs. Obviously it didn't hurt how they governed at all.

I love the idea of someone saying Alexander the Great can't lead his empire because he's cheating on his wife (by the way, doesn't Alexander's bisexuality single-handedly destroy the idea that gays can't serve in the military). How about Genghis Khan? He had so many affairs that nearly 1% of the entire world population has his genes. Not fit to lead? And there have also been men of great compassion who led noble fights while still doing ignoble things in their private lives. We are all human at home. read more here

One thing we know for sure these days - lust, immorality and lascivious behavior is not exclusive to leaders in the Democratic Party. The Republicans have their long list of transgressions as well. John McCain has made some less than moral choices in his life as well.

Skeletons they used to call them. I got mine, but I'm not tellin'. But I am not running for President of the United States either.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Peace and Love,
